Deck Check Rating
Deck Check explained
Deck Check is a good way to quickly check if your deck has problems. It’s not perfect, and it can’t be since Clash Royale is a dynamic and sophisticated game. It also depends on skill. A pro with a bad deck can beat a bad player with a good deck. However, it should give you a good idea if your deck is good or not.

How well you should be able to defend enemy attacks with this deck. It is calculated by looking at your defensive cards and their synergy.

No way of punishing your opponent for spending elixir.

Advanced stuff
Defensive cards
Offensive cards
Dropped at the bridge
Cards that can be dropped at the bridge, either as a chip damage or as a rush attack.
Swarms & Bait
Bait cards
If you have multiple cards that are countered by the same spell, you can play one card to bait the spell, then you can safely play the other card(s).
Ladder info
Some cards can be both level-independent and weak/strong when under/overleveled. Example: A lower-level Ice Golem doesn't kill Skarmy, so it's 'Weak'. However, in other aspects such as tanking, it works perfectly fine on lower levels.
Level-independent
Cards that are good even on lower level. Their key stats are not influenced by the level too much and no key interactions are level-dependent.
Weak when underleveled
Cards that are particularly weak if you have them on lower level. Their key interactions with some cards are changed when they are level or two below the other card.
Free-to-play score
For a quick orientation about how easy it is to level up the deck for free-to-play players. The more epics and legendaries it contains, the lower the score.
Godly!
